Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in
Tuesday's session is Diamond Foods Inc. (DMND)
Diamond Foods' fiscal fourth-quarter loss widened on $96.1
million in litigation-settlement-related expenses, a $36 million
write-down of Kettle-brand assets and other items, while the
snack-and-nut company's sales were hurt by sharply lower nut sales.
Shares fell 7% to $21.91 in after-hours trading.
Watch List:
Perry Corp. has cut its stake in J.C. Penney Co. (JCP) a little
more than a month since the hedge fund raised its stake in the
troubled retailer. The fund, controlled by investor Richard C.
Perry, now has 10 million shares in Penney, according to a filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Magnum Hunter Resources Corp. (MHR) said Monday that a gas
processing plant near Mobley, W. Va., has been temporarily shut
down following a break in a natural gas liquids pipeline caused by
a landslide.
Paychex Inc.'s (PAYX) fiscal first-quarter earnings rose 6.4% as
the company's revenue growth outpaced expansion in its expenses.
The payroll and human resources services company's results came in
slightly above Wall Street expectations.
Symantec Corp.'s (SYMC) chief financial officer, James Beer, has
resigned from that post and next month will take on the same role
at medical-products distributor McKesson Corp. (MCK).
